steve? thank you for calling in. caller: i wanted to ask gilbert from oklahoma, he stated that none of mitt romney's sons are in the service. what branch of service did bill clinton, barack obama, and joe biden served in? these folks but little people because they decided not to serve, or to serve. my father came back from vietnam in 1971 and told me not to go into the service because of the way they were treated when they came home. my draft number was high enough that i did not have to go. i do not understand what is going on in this country. host: what should mitt romney talk about? caller: the military protection of our interests, he should continue to do so. i think like 5% of the cost in the pentagon, but we would not know, as we have not seemed to have a budget for anything. these folks call in for information -- bill clinton is the one who repealed glass- stiegel. it led to the downfall of housing and the problems we had in 2008. everyone contributed to it. 60 million jobs went away in the internet bubble. ho

. >> steve luecker has a question, and it is for vice president gore. mr. luecker? there you are. >> vice president gore. the family farms are disappearing and having a hard time even in the current positive economic environment. what steps would you or your administration take on agricultural policy developments to protect the family farms for this multi- functional service they perform? >> we've got a bumper crop this year. but that's the good news. you know what the bad news is that follows on that. the prices are low. in the last several years, the so-called freedom to farm law has, in my view, been mostly a failure. i want to change many of its provisions. now, many here who are not involved in farming don't -- won't follow this, so just forgive me. because the 2% of the country that is involved in farming is important because the rest of us wouldn't eat except for them. and you guys have been having a hard time, and i want to fight for you. i want to change those provisions. i want to restore a meaningful safety net. and i think that you pointed the way in you
